I built a Hawk Audio A-18 kit and think it sounds great. Can be switched to class A only and uses no feedback for 10 watts per channel, using 4 FET's per side. Easy build, but the stock case is expensive. Just components run about $1K. Talk to the US importer, http://www.hawkaudio.com/ They're very friendly and informative. A review is available at http://www.tnt-audio.com/ampli/hawk_a18_e.html
Which budget SS amps use least Global Feedback?
I have been reading all the "NEGATIVE" things, pun intended, on this forum about how amps with lots of global negative feed-back sound less musically involving, more sterile, more closed-in in the mids and highs, more boring, and less musical than amps that use no global negative feed-back, or only local feed-back in their designs.
Well, which realitively cheap SOLID STATE amps between the following use the least global feed-back, or only local feed-back in their designs:
1. Adcom GFA-5802?
2. Parasound HCA-3500?
3. Rotel RB1090?
What about if we expand our list to include all of the above, plus:
1. Anthem Statement P2?
2. Aragon 3002 or Palladium monoblocks?
3. ATI AT3002?
4. Bryston 4B ST?
5. Carver?
6. McCormack DNA-225?
7. Sunfire?
8. Any others out there?
Any info or answers would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
